Apologies. I do love this sport with a passion.

I have friends who are passionate Crewe Alex fans.... doesn't mean they know anything about football.



:devilish:

You have a lot of opinions, and for me if you aren't backing them up by betting on them, might as well be horoscopes.




If I couldn't bet on this sport I don't think I'd stay engaged. The exception would be owning horses, but I'd need the stars to align for that :highly_amused:

Might be an unpopular opinion on my part but they go hand-in-hand, betting and racing.

Don't get me wrong I love playing the bookies, beating the prices and having a punt but the biggest thing for me is going racing, the social side of it, studying them in the paddock, watching them run and the thrill of picking a winner, then celebrating after. Winnings are great but not the b all and end all for me. No way would I bet if I couldn't go racing and watch them run.

Absolutely. Treat it like a hobby and not a business and well all enjoy it.

Personally been using this forum for the past few seasons for making money tbh. If you want to show your love for the sport and not interested in the betting side then get on twitter as I think the racing blogger is looking an assistant.

Ha, ha, ha. Would like to think some of my input has helped make people's minds up regarding some horses. Don't need to discuss money

Seasons is plural , your join date is October 2019, a lurker for too long , the more the merrier .
Is your comment aimed at Lobos ?

If so

Lobos whether I agree or disagree with him ( more often disagree :) ) is a passionate NH fan and punter and I respect him for that

His contribution is far greater than others( ITCF ) and he is responsible for posting opinions as facts which in fairness he is now addressing :highly_amused:

Been an on looker mainly as the content was so good but this year has seen a select few with some opinions and just couldn’t sit back any longer �� I am sure you can guess who but I just think people’s imaginations run wild after a horse does something without sitting back and thinking first.

Apart from that it’s been pretty faultless

Get stuck in posting , the written word is easily misinterpreted and IMO Kevs adding of emoji’s is essential in setting the tone of your post

That wasn’t great grammatically but wtf :highly_amused:

It’s not faultless but the “ good intent “ is obvious and paramount on this forum
 
If Benie wins well tomorrow in the 3m would Willie be tempted to bring her here? I'm doubtful personally and even more so if Honey ends up in the CH, but I would be cautious.
